I didn't expect it to last to be honest - I thought it was too early, and I was afraid that he would be caught after he dropped Terpstra. However he just kept going, and the gap kept getting bigger and bigger. Really nice performance by Tom.

Too bad about Pozzato - did that guy even have a team? Every time I saw him in the last 100km or so, he looked completely alone in a group full of other teams. We he had that small incident with about 30km to go, that was it, his day was effectively over at that point because he had nobody to help him re-join the group.
